Free Online TIFF to ZIP Converter

A TIFF file is a raster image file format created by Aldus in the 1980s as a means to store high-quality images in a flexible format. This flexibility is emphasized by its ability to store images at varying color depths, from monochrome all the way up to full 24-bit color.

As well as being able to store image data at varying color depths, TIFF files can also store images in other formats, such as CMYK. Along with image data, it is also possible to store metadata, allowing information such as color space, dimensions, and other useful information to be stored.

As the image data is stored in an uncompressed format, TIFF files can become quite large, especially when dealing with full color RGB images at higher resolutions. Although TIFF files have become less common in recent years, many image editing programs still support them.

A ZIP file is a compressed file container format that has been around for many years and has become a universal standard for compressing multiple files into a single package. Along with compressing individual files, ZIP files can also compress entire directory structures.

The compression algorithm of the ZIP format enables highly efficient compression of most file types, whether they be text, music, or images. ZIP files are a great way to group together and compress multiple files for easy storage and distribution.

As ZIP files have become a standard format for file compression, most operating systems and platforms are capable of creating and opening ZIP files without any additional software.
